* don't require pulling stubs for cloud models
This is a first in a series of PRs that will better integrate Ollama's
cloud into the API and CLI. Previously we used to have a layer of
indirection where you'd first have to pull a "stub" model that contains
a reference to a cloud model. With this change, you don't have to pull
first, you can just use a cloud model in various routes like `/api/chat`
and `/api/show`. This change respects
<https://github.com/ollama/ollama/pull/14221>, so if cloud is disabled,
these models won't be accessible.
There's also a new, simpler pass-through proxy that doesn't convert the
requests ahead of hitting the cloud models, which they themselves
already support various formats (e.g., `v1/chat/completions` or Open
Responses, etc.). This will help prevent issues caused by double
converting (e.g., `v1/chat/completions` converted to `api/chat` on the
client, then calling cloud and converting back to a
`v1/chat/completions` response instead of the cloud model handling the
original `v1/chat/completions` request first).
There's now a notion of "source tags", which can be mixed with existing
tags. So instead of having different formats like`gpt-oss:20b-cloud` vs.
`kimi-k2.5:cloud` (`-cloud` suffix vs. `:cloud`), you can now specify
cloud by simply appending `:cloud`. This PR doesn't change model
resolution yet, but sets us up to allow for things like omitting the
non-source tag, which would make something like `ollama run
gpt-oss:cloud` work the same way that `ollama run gpt-oss` already works
today.
More detailed changes:
- Added a shared model selector parser in `types/modelselector`:
- supports `:cloud` and `:local`
- accepts source tags in any position
- supports legacy `:<tag>-cloud`
- rejects conflicting source tags
- Integrated selector handling across server inference/show routes:
- `GenerateHandler`, `ChatHandler`, `EmbedHandler`,
`EmbeddingsHandler`, `ShowHandler`
- Added explicit-cloud passthrough proxy for ollama.com:
- same-endpoint forwarding for `/api/*`, `/v1/*`, and `/v1/messages`
- normalizes `model` (and `name` for `/api/show`) before forwarding
- forwards request headers except hop-by-hop/proxy-managed headers
- uses bounded response-header timeout
- handles auth failures in a friendly way
- Preserved cloud-disable behavior (`OLLAMA_NO_CLOUD`)
- Updated create flow to support `FROM ...:cloud` model sources (though
this flow uses the legacy proxy still, supporting Modelfile overrides
is more complicated with the direct proxy approach)
- Updated CLI/TUI/config cloud detection to use shared selector logic
- Updated CLI preflight behavior so explicit cloud requests do not
auto-pull local stubs
What's next?
- Cloud discovery/listing and cache-backed `ollama ls` / `/api/tags`
- Modelfile overlay support for virtual cloud models on OpenAI/Anthropic
request families
- Recommender/default-selection behavior for ambiguous model families
- Fully remove the legacy flow

* consolidate pull logic into confirmAndPull helper
pullIfNeeded and ShowOrPull shared identical confirm-and-pull logic.
Extract confirmAndPull to eliminate the duplication.
* skip local existence checks for cloud models
ModelExists and the TUI's modelExists both check the local model list,
which causes cloud models to appear missing. Return true early for
explicit cloud models so the TUI displays them beside the integration
name and skips re-prompting the model picker on relaunch.
* support optionally pulling stubs for newly-style names
We now normalize names like `<family>:<size>:cloud` into legacy-style
names like `<family>:<size>-cloud` for pulling and deleting (this also
supports stripping `:local`). Support for pulling cloud models is
temporary, once we integrate properly into `/api/tags` we won't need
this anymore.

Currently, context length is unbounded - the cache will keep
growing forever independent of the model's trained context
length. This caps it and enforces semantics similar to most
cloud services:
- Long prompts will result in an error, not truncation.
- Generation that exceeds the context will be stopped
The MLX runner previously reported a static VRAM estimate that was
computed at load time and consisted only of the weights. This is
strictly less than the actual memory usage, as it does not include
the KV cache or compute graph.
* add ability to disable cloud
Users can now easily opt-out of cloud inference and web search by
setting
```
"disable_ollama_cloud": true
```
in their `~/.ollama/server.json` settings file. After a setting update,
the server must be restarted.
Alternatively, setting the environment variable `OLLAMA_NO_CLOUD=1` will
also disable cloud features. While users previously were able to avoid
cloud models by not pulling or `ollama run`ing them, this gives them an
easy way to enforce that decision. Any attempt to run a cloud model when
cloud is disabled will fail.
The app's old "airplane mode" setting, which did a similar thing for
hiding cloud models within the app is now unified with this new cloud
disabled mode. That setting has been replaced with a "Cloud" toggle,
which behind the scenes edits `server.json` and then restarts the
server.
* gate cloud models across TUI and launch flows when cloud is disabled
Block cloud models from being selected, launched, or written to
integration configs when cloud mode is turned off:
- TUI main menu: open model picker instead of launching with a
disabled cloud model
- cmd.go: add IsCloudModelDisabled checks for all Selection* paths
- LaunchCmd: filter cloud models from saved Editor configs before
launch, fall through to picker if none remain
- Editor Run() methods (droid, opencode, openclaw): filter cloud
models before calling Edit() and persist the cleaned list
- Export SaveIntegration, remove SaveIntegrationModel wrapper that
was accumulating models instead of replacing them
* rename saveIntegration to SaveIntegration in config.go and tests
* cmd/config: add --model guarding and empty model list fixes
* Update docs/faq.mdx

When context length is clamped to the model's trained context length,
ollama ps now shows the actual clamped value instead of the originally
configured value.
For `/api/show`, a fully missing `model_info` field trips up various
integrators (including a recent Android Studio integration).
The primary source of missing info tends to come from models with a
remote that are also missing other data. It seems better to me to return
an empty `model_info` than making up some other fields within
`model_info` (like saying the architecture is `remote` or something like
that). So this does slightly change `/api/show`'s behavior that possibly
someone is relying on, but it seems more important to ensure the field
is always there (from a quick sampling integrations seem to be robust to
missing fields _within_ it).

Move the unload check (empty prompt + KeepAlive=0) before the image
generation model dispatch in GenerateHandler. This prevents models like
flux from being loaded into memory just to be immediately unloaded when
running `ollama rm`.
Also fix a bug in DeleteHandler where `args[0]` was used instead of
`arg` in the delete loop, causing only the first model to be unloaded
when deleting multiple models.
* x: make `ollama create --experimental` import from safetensors
This change allows pulling in safetensors models into the new experimental model format, and also
fixes the `ollama show` command to be able to correctly display the model information.

* api: add Anthropic Messages API compatibility layer
Add middleware to support the Anthropic Messages API format at /v1/messages.
This enables tools like Claude Code to work with Ollama local and cloud models through the
Anthropic API interface.
The normalize function now checks for NaN and Inf values in the
embedding vector before processing. This prevents JSON encoding
failures when models produce invalid floating-point values.

Refactored the ConfigV2 and RootFS types from server/images.go to a new types/model/config.go file under the model package. Updated all references to use model.ConfigV2 and model.RootFS. This allows for use in other projects without worrying about compiling the c code in the llama package.
Adds logprobs support to Ollama's API including support for Ollama's
OpenAI-compatible API. By specifying the new 'logprobs' boolean parameter
in the API, Ollama will return the log probabilities for each token generated.
'top_logprobs', an integer value can also be specified up to the value 20.
When specified, the API will also provide the number of most likely tokens to
return at each token position

Currently, checking the length of prompts for embeddings to ensure
they fit in the context window (and possible truncation) occurs in
two places - the Ollama server and runner. This can lead to
inconsistencies in both the checks and reported number of tokens
processed. Since we have to do this processing in the runner, this
consolidates all of the logic there.
Adds a temporary global flag to renderers that causes renderers to always
render images as [img]. In a follow up change, we will consider making this
the default, and this flag could eventually be removed
Made it so when api/generate builds up a message array and generates the
prompt it now goes through the same function as `api/chat` for
consistency. This is where we hook the optional built-in renderers to
bypass templates, which was missing for `api/generate` before this
change.
Closes: #12578
